My argument for this is the coding standard document can reference the directory and `cp` or `copy` can be used to get a properly formatted staring point file. This is opposed to cutting and pasting from a web browser and possibly really getting garbage in the file.
Less tools, less margin for error and a test case for nxstyle, with the possibility to automate a replacement tool. I would be in favor of that sort of thing. -----Original Message----- From: Gregory Nutt [mailto:spudan...@gmail.com] Sent: Sunday, February 02, 2020 5:55 AM To: dev@nuttx.apache.org Subject: Re: [DISCUSS] adding templates for files. > When we do get this figured out.

This is preformatted and can be lifted directly from the document. The coding standard is the correct place for these templates, not some garbage directory. I would am in favor of extending the coding standard by an highly oppose to a garbage directory.
